How efficient are Santa Fe dehumidifiers?
Of the 13 Santa Fe dehumidifiers, 10 file a higher IEF than the class median and 3 fall below it.
| DOE class | Santa Fe models | Above median | Class median | Best Santa Fe |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Whole home dehumidifiers (30) | 7 | 5 | IEF 2.13 | 4044510 IEF 3.05 |
| Portable dehumidifiers over 50 pints/day (13) | 4 | 4 | IEF 2.8 | Impact155 IEF 2.89 |
| Portable dehumidifiers up to 25 pints/day (253) | 1 | 0 | IEF 1.7 | 4044610 IEF 1.64 |
| Portable dehumidifiers, 25 to 50 pints/day (296) | 1 | 1 | IEF 1.91 | 4044100 IEF 1.96 |
A higher IEF means more water removed per kWh.
Who makes Santa Fe dehumidifiers?
DOE's database has no manufacturer field, so the evidence is whose model number each unit is filed under and which other brands file the same unit.
Santa Fe shares 2 units with 2 other brands. Its other 11 basic models are filed by Santa Fe alone. Brands it shares with, and how many units each:
| Basic model | Santa Fe model | Number belongs to | Brands |
|---|---|---|---|
| 70.1- | 4044100 | No known prefix | 3 |
| 33.1- | 4044610 | No known prefix | 2 |
How much does a Santa Fe dehumidifier cost to run?
Running nonstop at DOE's test conditions, the 13 Santa Fe dehumidifiers with both figures use 6.34 to 26.6 kWh a day. That's about $1.15 to $4.83 a day, or $34.57 to $144.90 for 30 days. The lowest is Santa Fe 4044610 (21.99 pints/day, IEF 1.64) and the highest Santa Fe 4046180 (166.94 pints/day, IEF 2.97).
Real use cycles on and off with the humidity, so these are the upper figures for a day of nonstop running.
At 18.16¢ per kWh, the US average residential price for August 2026 (EIA Electric Power Monthly, table 5.6.A). Worked out from the certified figures.
Questions about Santa Fe
- Is Santa Fe a good dehumidifier brand?
- How its 13 dehumidifiers compare on efficiency with their DOE class is above. 2 of them are the same unit as another brand's model. We don't test reliability, noise or build quality, so we can't rank brands on those. How we compare models.
- Does Santa Fe make a 50 pint dehumidifier?
- Yes, by the 2019 DOE test: 11 of its models certify 49.5 pints/day or more, led by Santa Fe 4046180 at 166.94 pints/day. By DOE class: 1 in the up to 25 pints/day class, 1 in the 25 to 50 pints/day class, 4 in the over 50 pints/day class and 7 in the whole home class. How the 2019 test changed pint ratings.
- Which Santa Fe dehumidifier is the most efficient for its size?
- Santa Fe 4044510, at IEF 3.05: higher than 29 of the 30 in its DOE class (whole home dehumidifiers). At the other end are Santa Fe Impact155 and Santa Fe 4047100, at IEF 2.62, the lowest of the 5 in its class.
- Is Santa Fe the same as Broan?
- For 2 units, yes: both file them under the same DOE basic model (33.1-P and 70.1-W). The other 11 Santa Fe basic models aren't filed by Broan. Compare the 2 brands of 33.1-P. Compare the 3 brands of 70.1-W.
